Speaking of Sports The Reds proved that the cham- pionship of the National league is not yet decided by winning four of their five games from the Giants last week and making a slight gain on the New “Yorkers. Pittsburgh slipped back in Jts attempt !y hold second place. Hartford 'and Bridgeport thrilled the fansgn the Park city yesterday by playing an 18 inning battle in the first game of a double header. Hart- ford won the long drawn out affair, 3 to 2. Hartford used three pitchers and Littrell went the full distance for Bridgeport, Firpo says he doesn't want any more bouts in Indianapolis. Perhaps the ringside rooters in the Hoosier City also feel the same way about it Jack Scott is another pitcher who confounds the experts. Long ago it was said that his arm was “all gone.” Yesterday he held the Pirates to three hits. New Britain teams fared well over the week-end. The Corbin team took two games, St. Mary's beat a Meriden team yesterday and the Besse-Leland Bine also came out on the big end of the score. ” 4 In a special rate yesterday, Joie Ray won an easy victory over Willie Rito- la over a two-mile course. Half a mile from the tape Ritola was in the lead. Ray opened up one of his fa- mous sprints and won by ten yards.

New York, Aug. 20.—In a farcical exhibition of the nation pastime yes-| terday afternoon at Thbet Field the| Dodgers were walloped by Chicago, 15 to 8. Thirty-two hits, including homers by Bert Griffith, Jimmy Johnston and Bernie Friberg, two triples and six doubles were the sum total of the afternoons’ wild enter- tainment to which 10,000 fans were treated—or subjected. For seven innings the game pos- sessed a little respectability. In the home half of the seventh the Dodgers who had been pursuing the Bruins from the very first inning, finally managed to get ahead by one ruwm, 7 to 6. Immediately the game became no game at all. The Cubs batted | two hits and five bases on balls after Daniel In The Lion’s Den Daniel Frohman (center), theatrical impressario, takes a chance with the jungle kings on the {lion farm of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Gay, in Los Angeles. brutes had just finished their breakfast.

Neither Grover Alexander nor Dutch Ruether, who started for the Cubs and Dodgers, respectively, was in at the finish. The veteran Alec, who had won seventeen and lost eight games . previous to yesterday's clash, was retired in the fitth inning after| Bert Griffith’s homer, which bounded Into the left ' field circus bleachers, had tied the score at 6 all. Tt was only the third time in twenty-five starts that the dean of the:Chicago pitch- ing staff had been forced from the | mound this season.

R e N R e AUGUST 20, 1923, ‘YENUS AND ADONIS’ BAGK T0 MUSEUM Statue, Too Much for New Ro- chelle, Draped and Moved New York, Aug. 20—Frederick MacMonnles's sculpture “Venus and Adonis” will depart today from New Rochelle. It stood in front of the Pub- e Library there yesterday, canvas- covered, “What is it all about?” residents asked each other. Then someone found an account in the Sunday pa- pers of the fathers of New Rochelle having objected to the statue, part of a loan exhibition which will begin to- day, on the ground that it was inde- cent. The committee in charge of the exhibit immediately draped the statue. Sergt Maltby Underhill, who notified the art committee of the proposition, said the statue had been up just two hours Friday, when three men, who refused to give their names, came in to protest. “I did not ask for the sculpture to be covered,” he explained. “There's no law against it. There have been no further complaints.” Frederick Dana Marsh, the mural painter, a member of the committee, said the statue had been covered chiefly to protect it from possible de- facement, “It is a masterpiece, I think, and is carved from the finest marble by the sculptor himself,” he said. “No s THE HERALD The A-B-C Paper with the A-B-C Want Ads B amount of insurance could make up|politan Museum of Art, which paid for the depredations of some fanatic. I have heard no complaints from any fathers. The town was lucky to get it for the exhibit. It was on view all summer at the Museum of the Amerl can Indian in New York and no one objected.” So “Venus and Adonis," still cloth- |- ed, will be sent back to the Metro- Oh, For The Bounding Deep! $10,000 for it, and the exhibit will open without it. Among the other hundred pieces of statuary inside and outside the library are several nudes One, placed on the library steps, had already been defaced yesterday by having a toe chopped off. There are six men and five women members on the art committee.
